ORDER
19.08.2026
02. 1. Heard learned counsel for the Petitioner and learned counsel for the State.
2. The Petitioner is seeking pre-arrest bail in connection with C.T. Case No.587 of 2025 pending on the file of the learned S.D.J.M., Dharamgarh arising out of Kegaon P.S. Case No.234 of 2025 for commission of offences punishable under Section 126(2)/296/115(2)/109(1)/351(2)/3(5) of BNS.
3. Learned counsel for the Petitioner submits that it’s a case of false implication. Hence, the Petitioner may be protected by pre-arrest bail.
4. Such submission is opposed by learned counsel for the State referring to the statement of the injured and the injury report indicating that the injured has suffered grievous injury and the
Petitioner is stated to have the following criminal antecedents:- “i) Kegaon PS Case No.237 dt-26.10.2022 U/s 147/294/506/149 IPC
ii) Kegaon PS Case No.301 dt. 22.12.2023 U/s 341/294/323/506 IPC
iii) Kegaon PS Case No.123 dt. 16.06.2025 U/s 296/329(2)/3(5) BNS
iv) Kegaon PS Case No.237 dt 26.10.2026 U/s 324(2)/296/351(2)/3(5) BNS.”
5. Considering the same, this Court is not inclined to entertain this application for pre-arrest bail. However, in the event the Petitioner surrenders before the learned Court in seisin in the aforesaid case and moves an application for his release on bail, the same shall be considered on its own merit.
6. Accordingly, the ABLAPL stands disposed of.
